    Second day of illness, please help!

    Sorry for your loss, thanks for the help! I checked her out and she seems healthy all over, she never stopped drinking water, and is now eating. I suspect the 90°f weather may be the culprit, and will be installing a solar fan in the coop ASAP. In the meantime I am leaving cross draft windows...

    Second day of illness, please help!

I removed all bedding (found some small bugs under bedding) and applied diatomacious earth to bottom of laying boxes, then put fresh bedding in. I also applied DE and lime to bottom of pen. I was able to chase her down and give her a...

    Hello all from sunny Sarasota!

    Thanks for the replies everyone! I treated with Wazine 17 yesterday per directions on bottle and have already noticed a marked difference in the birds' appetite. All three layed beautiful eggs yesterday, but I threw them out just to be safe. Today though, I found a single paper thin...

    Hello all from sunny Sarasota!

    Well, spring is here, and this year I've added 3 hens to my suburban homestead. I've already got more lettuce, spinach, and cabbage than I can eat, I grow tomatoes in the cool season (I hesitate to call it winter here,) I keep various peppers year round, various herbs, and even started some...
